“My son got in the car after school with a huge smile on his face and said, “Guess what, Mom? When I was coming out of the change room after Gym, my teacher stopped me and told me I was doing a really good job!” It was as if he had just won the lottery, he was so pleased with himself. My son is not the most athletic kid and he struggles in Gym. Your words meant so much to him. You really gave him a boost! Thank you.“

”We would like to take this opportunity to thank you very much for all your hard work and dedication. The support and encouragement you have given our daughter has resulted in her thoroughly enjoying the Physical Education programme, and her experience as a reserve on the basketball team.”

“Our son is playing with full confidence at hockey and playing very well. We still discuss personal goals ahead of each game. I give you full credit for understanding him so well – your strategy is really working! Thank you.”

“Thanks for the updates throughout the year. Also, thanks for all of your teaching, support, and coaching of our son during his years at Glenburnie. You have a very different style than his basketball coach, and I think it has been very helpful for my son to work with you over the years, as you have not only worked on his skill development, but more importantly, his mental game, and his leadership in sports. I know this will serve him well in the future. Thanks again!”

“I wanted to thank you for another year of unsurpassed commitment to the Physical Education program at Glenburnie. The students are very lucky to have a teacher as passionate and dedicated as you. Your continued, positive encouragement certainly helped my daughter work to her full potential.”

“My son had a great day at the recent tournament. It was also his birthday and he proudly wore his MVP shirt when we set out to celebrate. He commented on what a great day it had been. Thank you for all your hard work and for your time! We look forward to the next tournament.”

“Sincere thanks to you! Our teams played so well and it was great to see such dominance throughout the tournament for the boys and girls. You were the X factor. Your coaching and training clearly made a huge difference. Thanks for all the extra hours you put into all the teams that you coach. Without teachers like you, our children would never have these opportunities to learn, grow, and thoroughly enjoy team spirit.”

“The boys played very well at the tournament. You deserve much kudos for keeping them focused and in good spirits throughout the afternoon. The most important thing that my son obtained from this tournament is a positive attitude about himself and about sports. That is priceless!”

“Excellent job today at the tournament! Your team excelled as sportsmen with true teamwork. That takes character and leadership, which were in very outstanding evidence today.”

“We want to thank you for the support and guidance you have given our children over the years. They have really enjoyed their time at Glenburnie.”

“Just a brief note to thank you for the great experience you provided my son with the basketball team. Even as a reserve player, he learned a tremendous amount about the game. I really enjoyed watching the children compete at the tournament and was pleasantly surprised at the level of play. My son is now quite enthusiastic about basketball and definitely wants to try-out again next year. Thanks again!”
